I can't count the number of times that I've j-walked at this intersection. Each time I feel like I'm in frogger about to get squashed by a fast moving car.

Forcing pedestrians to walk down to Groove or Trumbull seems designed to create j-walking here. Audubon is a street that draws allot of pedestrian traffic. There has got to be something that we can do that is a start to improve safety at this intersection.

Could crosswalks and pedestrian in road way signs be a first step?

There have already been several serious accidents around here. The current situation is a death (or two or three) waiting to happen in the very near future.

Traffic should be immediately slowed to 15 miles per hour on this street using all available measures. The positive side effect would be increased traffic for the retail strip: pedestrians feeling more comfortable here, coming here to shop, spending more time on the street, some feeling comfortable enough to bike on the street, etc. Studies show that walkable areas command real estate premiums of 200% or more. To do that, you need to slow the speeds down and make the street safe to cross.

The same treatment should be applied to Chapel Street and other retail areas.

Regardless of what you do, please do SOMETHING before someone gets killed here.
